Not much for brakes
I just got my cr back from the shop. I had a clutch job and some seals replaced. Now, I have s@#$ for brakes. Is there anything that I can check to bleed? Is there anything in doing a clutch job that involves the brakes or lines? I'm perplexed. TIA

What car are we talking about here? It could be as simple as the vacuum line for your power brakes got disconnected during the clutch work.
If no power brakes, you could have kinked lines or other issues. Although a soft pedal is usually an indicator that things need bleeding or you have air in the system, not a hard pedal.
